    To put yourself in somebody else's shoes means to try and feel how the other person's feeling or try to be them for a day and see what they do and indoor all day. The types of behaviors that show you understand someones feelings is for example if you go up to someone who is sad and ask them whats wrong and they tell you don't just say "well ok I'm going to go play soccer." Instead of that say "well I'm sorry to hear that maybe we can do something fun together and get your mind off things." When you say that it will cheer the person up and make them less sad. A way to show empathy to another person is if they were to would get mad at you don't just be rude and mean instead just understand they just need some space from you. Empathy is important because if we didn't have empathy then we would all treat each other very rude and disrespectful. It can change a community because everyone would be so nice and caring for each other

    What it means to put yourself in someone else's shoes meeans thinking about how they feel not just thinking about yourself. The behaviours that shows you care is saying "i understand how you feel" hug them make them feel comfortable. How you can show empathy to others is hug thdm play with them and treating them like family. Empathy is important beacause it shows that you care for people and not caring for yourself only how empathy changes the community is when you care for them they start caring for others then people care for others and not just their self.

    When you put yourself in someone else's shoes it means to feel someone else's feelings and live their life for a day or more or to try something new. You can tell that you understand someone's feelings by listening to what their voice sounds like or watching how they move and behave. You can show empathy to others by saying nice words, helping them or ask them if they would like to play with you. Empathy is important because without it people would not be nice to each other or get to know each other. They wouldn't be very happy! It can change the community by making people understand each other more and help with different situations.

    When you put yourself in someone else’s shoes it means you feel or experience what they are doing, instead of thinking about yourself.

    The different behavior that shows you understand someone else’s feelings are, when you ask them “are you okay”? or “what bothering you”? If they are on the floor crying, you can help them up and say “what’s wrong”?

    You can demonstrate empathy to people by showing them kindness or sitting down with them to talk about what’s on their mind. Also, help them when they are going through hard times.

    It is important to be empathetic towards people because it would chance a person’s feelings and actions. If someone is happy, they will do good things and help others. If they are sad, they may not do anything or help anyone. A community can change by people being empathetic towards one another. Everyone in the community will be happy and respectful. This behavior will catch on and grow with other communities.

    Empathy is putting others before yourself. Putting yourself in some else’s shoes means to understand what’s going on in their life and feeling bad sometimes. That’s what putting yourself in someone else’s shoes mean’s.The behaviors to show that you understand someone else’s feelings are that you don’t make fun of someone if they cry, drop their lunchbox, trip, or hurt themselves. A lot of times, I see some kids being mean to other kids. 1. A better way is start seeing the good in every person. 2. If they ask you to leave them alone, you should or if they don’t want to be left alone keep them company. 3. Ask if they are ok, then continue to be nice and warm. A few ways to show empathy towards others is show them kindness and by not getting too angry when they are being mean. You should listen to the reason why they are being mean. Something might’ve happened to them that made them to be mean. Empathy is important because if you want to make a change you need empathy.You need empathy to see the good things about people without empathy who am I.

    What it means to put yourself in someone else's shoes is that you think like them, act like them and do what they would do.Some behaviors that show that you understand someone’s feeling is sharing your snack, holding someone’s hand and walking with them.You can show empathy to others by making someone feel better if they are sad. You can also help someone with their schoolwork. Empathy is important because if people did not have empathy for one another no one would be nice to each other and you can’t be happy when no one is nice to you. Empathy can change a community because after people start showing empathy to each other then they will be nice to everyone and the community will get stronger.

    I think what it means to put yourself in someone else's shoes is you try to know what they are feeling and try to relate to their feelings. Here are some examples of things you should do to show that you know what the other person is feeling.
    *Give them a hug
    *Give them a treat
    *If you know how they feel, say,"I know how you feel."
    You can show empathy by comforting them and trying to relate to them. Another way of showing empathy is you can try to put yourself in their shoes. Empathy is important because without it everybody will be mean and no one would like each other. The way empathy can change our community is that people feel good when people show empathy to them, then they start showing empathy and more and more people start showing empathy and eventually everybody is shows empathy and everybody is happy.
